Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Minister, I am very happy to have some time to ask you questions. Thank you for appearing before us.

My first question is about the situations you considered when drafting the bill. In the case law, which legislation have crown prosecutors been using to convict people of animal cruelty, such as in the Quanto case? Of course, Bill C-35 did not yet exist.
